Comparison Review

Comfort
Passengers in the back seat will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Hyundai Elantra than the Alfa Romeo Giulia, due to its greater head- and legroom. The Hyundai Elantra will be a favorite with taller drivers due to its greater front head- and legroom than the Alfa Romeo Giulia.

Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Alfa Romeo Giulia as you will with the Hyundai Elantra, as they get the same number of miles per tank of gas.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The Alfa Romeo Giulia will definitely make more of a dent in your wallet than the Hyundai Elantra, which has a much lower MSRP.
